PartIIIListeningComprehension
SectionA
11.
M:
Shawn'sbeentryingformonthstofindajob.ButIwonderhowhecouldgetajobwhenhelookslikethat.
W:
Oh,thatpoorguy!
Hereallyshouldshavehimselfeveryotherdayatleastandputonsomethingclean.
Q:
WhatdowelearnaboutShawn?
答案：
A.Heiscarelessabouthisappearance.
解析：
男生首先对肖恩能否找到工作表示怀疑，因为他邋遢。
女生接着提到肖恩不修边幅，又说他应该每隔一天刮一次胡子，把自己弄得整洁干净一点。
由此可知，肖恩是一个对仪容仪表不太注重，比较粗线条的人shave，刮胡子；becarelessabout不在乎，不介意；
12.
W:
IwishJanewouldcallwhensheknowshe'llbelate.Thisisnotthefirsttimewe'vehadtowaitforher.
M:
Iagree.Butshedoeshavetodrivethroughveryheavytraffictogethere.
Q:
Whatdoesthemanimply?
答案：
A.Janemaybecaughtinatrafficjam.
解析：
本题是推理题，在做题时要注意仔细推敲。
女生说：
“Jane已经不是第一次迟到让我们等了，我希望她能事先打电话告诉我们一下”，可见女生对Jane迟到的作法是不满的。
男生又说：
“Iagree.Butshedoeshavetodrivethroughveryheavytraffictogethere.”（我同意。
但是她到这里的确要遭受很拥堵的交通。
）由此得出，男生对此事的态度是理解或宽容的。
Jane可能被堵在半路了。
13.
M:
Congratulations!
IheardyourbaseballteamisgoingtotheMiddleAtlanticChampionship.
W:
Yeah,we'reallworkingrealhardrightnow!
Q:
Whatisthewoman'steamdoing?
答案：
A.TrainingfortheMid-AtlanticChampionship.
解析：
对话开头男生提到女生所在的棒球队要参加Mid-AtlanticChampionship.女生说：
“we'reallworkingrealhardrightnow!
”（我们现在正紧锣密鼓地练习呢！
）由此可知，女生所在的棒球队正在进行赛前训练。
此题还有一个迷惑选项B,Makingpreparationsforatrans-Atlantictrip,必须注意的是：
这里并不是准备旅行，而是准备参赛。
14.
W:
John'sbeenlookingafterhismotherinthehospital.Shewasinjuredinacaraccidenttwoweeksagoandstillincriticalcondition.
M:
Oh,that'sterrible.Andyouknowhisfatherpassedawaylastyear.
Q:
WhatdowelearnaboutJohn?
答案：
D.Hehasbeenhavingahardtime.
解析：
根据听力原文可知，“John'smotherisinthehospitalandhisfatherdiedlastyear.”（约翰的母亲出车祸住院了，父亲两年前也过世了）由此可见，John的近况还是蛮悲惨的；答案也就显而易见了。
15.
M:
Whataboringspeaker!
Icanhardlystayawake.
W:
Well,Idon'tknow.Infact,Ithinkit'sbeenalongtimesinceI'veheardanyoneisgood.
Q:
Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?
答案：
DThewomanthinkshighlyofthespeaker
解析：
根据听力原文可知，男生觉得演讲无趣，女生却很淡定地说：
“其实我已经很久没有听到那么好的发言了”。
由此可见，女生对发言还是很肯定的。
选项D中“thinkshighlyof”即“对…评价高”，故D是正确答案。
16.
W:
I'mhavingalotoftroublewithlogicanditseemsmyprofessorcan'texplainitinawaythatmakessensetome.
M:
Youknow,thereisatutoringserviceoncampus.Iwasabouttodropstatisticsbeforetheyhelpedmeout.
Q:
Whatdoesthemanmean?
答案：
C.Thewomanshouldseekhelpfromtutoringservices.
解析：
首先女生说她逻辑学得很辛苦，接受不了老师的讲课方式也理解不了课程内容。
而后男生说学校有辅导班，他在参加之前几乎要挂科了，辅导班帮了他大忙。
言下之意是推荐女生也去上辅导班。
17.
M:
Thisisastylishovercoat.Isawyouwearingitlastweek,did'tI?
W:
Oh,thatwasn'tme.ThatwasmysisterJill.She'sinyourclass.
Q:
Whatdoesthewomanmean?
答案：
C.Jillworetheovercoatlastweek.
解析：
首先男生问女生上周是否穿过拉风外套，然后女生说：
“ThatwasmysisterJill.She'sinyourclass.”（那是我姐姐Jill，她和你同班）也就是说男生很有可能看到的那个穿着拉风外套的人是女生的姐姐Jill。
18.
M:
Jane,supposeyoulostallyourmoneywhiletakingavacationoverseas,whatwouldyoudo?
W:
Well,IguessI'dsellmywatchorcomputerordosomeoddjobstillIcouldaffordareturnplaneticket.
Q:
Whatarethespeakerstalkingabout?
答案：
B.Animaginarysituation.
解析：
根据原文录音可知，对话开头男生讲到：
“Jane,supposeyoulostallyourmoneywhiletakingavacationoverseas,whatwouldyoudo?
”这里的"suppose"表明“假定、料想”由此可见，两人谈论的是一个虚拟场景。
M:

D）Hecan'tdecidewhethertoincludetheeffortpartofskiing.
Q21:
Whatdoesthewomansayiscommoninwritingpapers?
A）Newideascomeupasyouwrite.
19.D）Asportheparticipatesin
解析：
题目问的是，男生论文的主题是什么，从talkaboutwhatparticularsportmeanstomewhenIparticipatein一句中，可得对应选项D。
C选项是一个干扰项，painandpleasureinsports,意为运动中的痛苦与快乐，其中sports一词范围太大，对话中只谈到了cross-countryskiing,因此，C选项错。
20.D）Hecan'tdecidewhethertoincludetheeffortpartofskiing.
解析：
当男生打算将越野滑雪的艰辛剔除出论文时，教授说了一句“Thenyou'llhavetoincludethatinyourpoint.”对应选项D
21.A）Newideascomeupasyouwrite.
解析：
在对话的最后，教授提到“Partofyourpointyouknewbeforehandbutpartyoudiscoveredasyouwrote.That'scommon,right?
”这句话意思是说，在写论文之前，论点的一部分我们已经有了，但另一部分在写的过程中才会发现，因此，对应选项A。
A选项与D选项较易混淆，但从教授的话中，我们可以看出，不是论点发生变化，而是在写作过程中，会有新的想法产生。
这篇长对话因为是围绕论文写作展开，而且涉及了一项我们中国人并不熟悉的运动，越野滑雪，因此，乍听之下，有些小抽象，小陌生。
但细听之后，我们会发现，文中有一大段都提到了男生在写作中遇到的纠结处，那就是越野滑雪的畅快和由此所付出的艰辛，文章的主旨自然呼之欲出了。
这篇对话主要考察对文章大意的理解，而不是纠结于一词一句的得失，因此，大家在做题时，也要注意把握主干，不要因为听到了一个自己不太熟悉的运动就舍本逐末。

25Whatdoesthemansaycontributetohissuccess?
B）Therestaurantatmosphere
22.D）Hostessoftheweekly“BusinessWorld”
解析：
从对话中可以听出，这是一个访谈节目，因此这个女性是节目主持人。
23.B）Heandhiswifedideverythingbythemselves.
解析：
题目问的是，刚开始的时候，Angeleno的生意怎么样？
对话中提到，Ididallthecookingmyselfandmywifewaitedontables.Angeleno负责做菜，他妻子负责接待，对应选项B。
24.B）Headvertisesalotonradioandinnewspapers.
解析：
从ButIadvertisealotonradioandinlocalnewspapers.一句中，可以得到对应选项。
25.B）Therestaurantatomsphere
解析：
题目问的是，什么有助于餐厅的成功？
对话中提到，IalwaysservethefreshestpossiblefoodandImaketheatmosphereascomfortableandaspleasantasIcan,sothatmycustomerswillwanttocomeback.可见，Angeleno会提供尽可能新鲜的食物和舒适的用餐环境以吸引顾客，因此，对应选项B，也许，有童鞋会问，为什么不选C？
注意，C选项是指各种各样的食物，与文意中“新鲜的食物”不符，是错误选项。
这篇对话是一篇较为简单的访谈节目，主要涉及一些细节问题，其中，关键细节包括餐馆经营情况，广告宣传情况等，也是考点所在。
童鞋们在听时，可以相应地做些简单的笔记，从而准确地选出选项。
